Saliva electrophoretic protein profiles in infants: changes with age and impact of teeth eruption and diet transition.
2011
International audience; Objective : The objective of this study was to describe the changes in salivary protein profiles in infants between the ages of 3 and 6 months, and to evaluate the impact of teeth eruption and introduction of solid foods on such profiles. Design : 73 infants were followed longitudinally at 3 and 6 months of age. Their whole saliva proteins were separated by SDS–PAGE electrophoresis and semi-quantified by image analysis. Amylase activity was also measured on a sub-sample of the population (n=42 infants). Bands which abundance was significantly different between the two ages according to paired comparisons were identified by mass spectrometry techniques. Results : Out …
Longitudinal study of age and order of eruption of primary teeth in Indian children
2010
Objective: To determine the chronological eruption parameters of primary teeth in Indian children. Study Design: A longitudinal study consisting of 135 healthy children (74 boys and 61 girls) attending three child health centres in the city of Hyderabad, India were randomly selected and followed from the emergence of the first to the last tooth. Ages and order of tooth eruption were studied for both genders. Results: Boys showed tendency towards earlier eruption for all teeth except maxillary second molar and maxillary/mandibular first molars which erupted earlier in girls. Comparison between maxillary and mandibular showed a tendency to earlier mandibular eruption of central incisors, late…
